The thesis was a great opportunity for me to experience the semiconductor industry first-hand and to better understand the business world I was entering upon graduation. Owing to the length of the project, I was exposed to multiple parts of the design flow and this allowed me to better identify my preferences, as well as the points where I needed to improve. The fact that upon graduation I would have a year of work experience under my belt is just an added benefit. After being exposed to various disciplines within the field of Microelectronics, I believe a job in analog/mixed-signal circuit design would make me the happiest and allow me to use all the knowledge I have gained at TU Delft.

Moreover, you get to design your own coursework from a wide set of specializations available within the department of microelectronics such as Biomedical electronics, Microsystem and technology, Analog, Digital and RF circuit designing. Furthermore, the specialization offers numerous project which is both job as well as Ph.D. oriented. Hence, prospective students can choose their master's project in accordance with their goals. I'm really enjoying my master at TU Delft as it is full of challenges and provides an overall growth as an engineer. I would recommend microelectronics program to all the prospective students who are intrigued by the electronic aspect of engineering.

That gives me a better idea of how things work in the real world. Many of the courses are based on team-based projects which help me learn how to coordinate with my peers and work together towards a common goal as a team. The departments have good connections with the industry and other research organizations. Hence there is no dearth of good and interesting projects to work on. Another aspect I love about studying in the Netherlands is that I have the opportunity to travel around Europe easily. Delft itself is a beautiful little student town between Rotterdam and The Hague. So I have ample places to explore and enjoy myself while growing my career.

All the above are combined with projects and applications in which you can apply the theory you study in. An important part is that in TU Delft, students are used to formulate groups to do exercises and assignments. This enhances the educational procedure and gives someone the opportunity to implement his soft skills. In general, the students are free to choose the courses that fit to their interests. Not to mention that all the academic staff are really helpful and open to answer questions regarding the courses' syllabus and projects. Furthermore, the professors have great connections with the industry and they can give very important insights and suggestions for potential future decisions. Concluding, Delft is a medium size city with everything a student needs. There are many pubs, clubs, restaurants and cafeterias. Moreover, Delft is very close to large cities like The Hague and Rotterdam and less than an hour far from Amsterdam.
